Samsung PM1643a 3.84TB 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s SSD

The Samsung MZILT3T8HBLS-00007 is a solid state drive built for enterprise systems. It delivers 3.84 TB of flash storage and installs in any chassis that accepts a 2.5 inch SAS bay. A SAS connection running at 12 Gb/s ties it directly into existing high-bandwidth backplanes without the need for additional adapters.

Large sequential tasks such as database exports, media ingestion or full backups finish quickly thanks to read speeds up to 2100 MB/s and write speeds up to 2000 MB/s. When activity shifts to highly random traffic, the drive maintains responsive performance with up to 450 thousand random read IOPS and 90 thousand random write IOPS.

Built for round-the-clock service, the drive carries an endurance rating of one full-capacity write each day for five years. That durability keeps write-intensive workloads running smoothly, whether the application is transaction logging, virtualization or real-time analytics. Enterprise-grade firmware and error management work in the background to secure data and sustain predictable throughput.

Anyone upgrading database servers, virtualization hosts or analytics clusters will value the balance of capacity, speed and longevity that this model offers. It also makes a reliable flash tier in hybrid storage arrays where consistent latency is essential.
